Squamous epithelium
it consists of single layer of flat cells it is found in lungs, heart, blood vessels here it allows the movement of material.
Cuboidal epithelium
it consists of a single layer of cube shaped cells it is found in kidney tubes , small glands etc it makes secretions over here.
Columnar epithelium
it consists of elongated cells it is found in alimentary canal, gall bladder. where it make secretions
Cilliated columnar epithelium
it has elongated cells with cilliated on it it is found in trachea, bronchi and propels mucous
